  Hi Stephanie,

  I’ll be happy to contact the registrar to see if we can restore pithyhermit.com to your account, but I cannot guarantee that we will be able to get the domain back. If I am successful, I can send you a manual payment request form for you to repurchase the domain.

  I will let you know once I hear back from the registrar.

  Let me know if you have any questions.

  Thanks!

  Hey there, I ran into this when we got a response from our registry partner.
  We were able to get the domain back, so I’ve emailed you regarding how to get it active on your site again.
  Please get in touch there, or let us know if you didn’t get the email.

  I’m having the same issue, can someone please help. I have contacted the registrar ‘Wild West’ and they told me to contact support@wordpress.com. I sent an email but have not heard a response yet.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated,
  Jesse
